How to Apply for Chhattisgarh Royalty Reimbursement Scheme — 50% Iron Ore Royalty Subsidy

There is no competition involved — no shortlisting rounds, no pitch presentations. Assessment is compliance-based and turns entirely on meeting the criteria set out in the state policy. In practice, the route looks like this:

• Application submission: the enterprise files a formal application with the designated state authority under the Package for Large Enterprises in the Core (Steel) Sector — expected to be the Department of Industries, Chhattisgarh.
• Documentation: proof of enterprise registration; evidence that the unit is a large enterprise in the steel sector; location details for Bastar or Surguja; records of the date commercial production began; and receipts showing the iron ore royalty and the coal cess that were paid.
• Verification: a committee or designated departmental officers examine the application and the supporting papers to confirm eligibility and the accuracy of the claims.
• Approval and disbursement: once verification clears, the approved reimbursement is released to the enterprise.
